TDateTimePicker is for picking whole dates, not just months. To choose
only a month, use a combo box.

But you do have "29": Today is July 29! Try this code on Monday, and
I'll bet it works fine.
Just because you haven't asked the control to display the entire date as
a string doesn't mean you no longer have to have a valid date. The error
you're getting isn't coming from the date-time control, anyway. It's
coming from RecodeMonth when you ask it to turn July 29 into February 29.
If the day and year aren't important to the date-time picker, then don't
leave those values to chance. Pick values that you know will work. Every
month this year (and for all years in the future, so far as we know)
will have a first day, so use 1 instead of 29.
DateTimePicker1.Date := EncodeDate(2005, F_Month, 1);
